Robert was a 4-H advisor for over 30 years, mainly with the Buckeye Boys 4-H Club in Lucas County.

He also enjoyed volunteering as a docent for the Blair Lithophane Museum.

His favorite hobby was buying and selling antiques, which gave him the chance to not only search for treasures, but also meet many new people.

Surviving are Robert’s loving wife of 62 years, Judith; children, Deborah (Greg) Swingholm, Christopher Shreves, Jennifer (Shawn) Quinn, and Bradley Shreves; grandaughter Hannah Quinn; brother Richard Shreves; as well as many nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews, and cousins he was very close to.

Robert was preceded in death by his parents, Paul and Madeline (Flinchbaugh) Shreves, and sister, Carol Stepleton.

Visitation will be held on Saturday Nov 12th from 2-4p at Weigel Funeral Home in Swanton, where funeral services will begin at 4pm. Private burial will be at a later date.
